Harrah’s Gulf Coast: A Hidden Gem in Biloxi

We recently took our first trip to Harrah’s Gulf Coast in Biloxi, Mississippi – and honestly, we weren’t sure what to expect. A free room through Caesars Rewards gave us the nudge, and the short midweek getaway, from Sunday through Thursday, turned out to be the perfect mix of fun, food, and relaxation. If you’re a retiree or casual traveler looking for great value with coastal views and casino action, this may be your next favorite stop.

I flew Business Class from Barcelona to Atlanta, stretched out in comfort, drank wine at 35,000 feet, and had lounge access — all without spending thousands of dollars or saving up half a million points.
